I have stacks of vinyl from various Boston bands from the early to late '80s, but you know how talented I am when it comes to vinyl ripping. I prefer to wait for great people like doublej to do it. I didn't listen to anything just because it was from Boston. It had to be good, too. Sex Execs were great.

Speaking of which, you remember the [i]other[/i] Slow Children? They had one single on Joe Viglione's Varulven label. One of my brothers had that record. I don't know what happened to it. Should have pinched it when I had the chance. Of course, they named themselves after the crossing sign. I just naturally assumed the L.A. Slow Children did likewise. Then I hear the RCA interview record and Pal Shazar blurts out that her band is called that because of mentally retarded kids!!!

Nobody will have to post it. Somebody doesn't have it. Somebody does have the Execs' three releases (including four copies of Sex Train/Strange Things, because who can stop after just one?) and will hopefully post them here later this summer. His lack of vinyl-to-mp3 talent notwithstanding.

Speak of the devil, there's a copy of The Gremies' single on ePay right now. (I messed up the title. It's "No Surfin in Dorchester Bay.") That's a pretty reasonable postage cost to the U.S. from Australia. Although somebody -- or perhaps nobody -- needs to tell the seller a pic sleeve can't exactly be mint minus if it's got a delete hole...
